When Is Post Time And How To Watch The 2018 Belmont Stakes
Justify will go for the greatest glory in horse racing at the 2018 Belmont Stakes: the Triple Crown. See when you should flip on the TV.
Is a Triple Crown in the cards on Long Island Saturday? The 150th running of the Belmont Stakes features Justify going for horse racing's greatest glory.
Around 90,000 people were expected at Belmont Park in Elmont to watch history in the making. If Justify wins, and he's the 1:1 betting odds favorite, he would become the 13th horse to win the Triple Crown and the first since 2015 when American Pharaoh took the crown.
The race will be broadcast live on NBC. There will be pre- and post-race coverage, but the post time for the main race is 6:37 p.m.

The 10:05am train from Jamaica has arrived at #BelmontPark for the #BelmontStakes150 there was a line for LIRR tickets, and a long line to get into the track, though pretty orderly. Lots of security. pic.twitter.com/vL8cDZYdWT
